sick again, though nothing serious.

came across this favourite Streams in the Desert quote again this morning. each time i read it, it gains reality and actuality. i wrote it down nearly three years ago, and am strengthened in hope each time i read it, no matter how bleak my current circumstance! 
when all around my soul gives way, He then is all my hope and stay.

Those who are broken in wealth, and broken in self-will, and broken in their ambitions, and broken in their beautiful ideals, and broken in worldly reputation, and broken in their affections, and broken ofttimes in health; those who are despised and seem utterly forlorn and helpless, the Holy Ghost is seizing upon, and using for God's glory.

you can read the rest of this devotion here; it's well worth your while.
